ODNB: 'His uncle, the physician John Nott (1751–1825), was a classical scholar with an interest in sixteenth-century literature. George Nott inherited both his uncle's estate and his scholarly interests.' After 1817 he spent much time in italy leaving in Rome, Pisa, Florence, translating the Book of Common Prayer into Italian but also writing novels in the style of 16th-century works: 'Fortunatus siculus, ossia, L'advventuroso Ciciliano' (Florence, 1832); he must have acquired his Italian incunables then. The sale of his library counted 12,500 volumes; several Italian works, with his annotations, are in the BL.
